| Abstract | Paper demonstrates potential of snow fences to increase storage on wind swept areas. Rm (Transport distance) is defined and used in various snow storage formulas. Rm was found to be about 4000 feet at sites between 7000 and 8000 feet in elevation before the wind completely sublimates the snowflake. |
